"Being the most beautiful woman in world doesn't guarantee a happy love life, but it surely did give her a passionate one." —Susan Elizabeth Phillips, author of Call Me Irresistible.
"Liz Taylor loved fiercely, blithely, and sometimes rashly — but we should all be lucky enough to come to the end of our lives knowing that when love was offered, we leapt at it. And in her advocacy for AIDS patients — at a time when America had its back turned to the problem — she taught us that love is not merely a matter of wedding vows; she showed a deep love of humanity even at its most fragile." —Eloisa James, author of When Beauty Tamed the Beast
"Not only was Elizabeth Taylor a beautiful person inside and out, she taught us by example to love with an open and fearless heart. She played many wonderful heroines on screen, but she was a true, compassionate heroine in her own life."—Rachel Gibson, author of Any Man of Mine
"She taught me that enduring love isn't easy, even for the most beautiful woman in the world." —Elizabeth Lowell, author of Death Echo
"Liz taught us that in matters of the heart, settling is unacceptable. Finding love isn't easy, and keeping it is even more difficult, but the journey is worth every minute, because ultimately, passion and romance are what life is all about. And she proved it again and again — in friendships, in relationships, and in her work. And we can all take a lesson from that." —Sarah Maclean, author of Eleven Scandals to Start to Win a Duke's Heart
